The good thing is you don't see it. You select shows based on the
name of the show in the database. It is a very limited frontend,
but if you want it for playing recorded shows, seeing what shows
are going to be recorded, playing mpeg2 videos (no mpeg4), and
experimentally watching live TV, it is a very good, very quiet
solution.
I have two and they work perfectly for my needs. I schedule
all shows to be recorded from a regular frontend or Chris'
excellent mythbrowser.
